Although we certainly can't afford for me to collect something like these, I am kind of interested in them. I've always wanted to have some nice, high end statues to display at home here, and it seems like the Gentle Giant ones are quite spiffy. I might have to see if I can't drop some lines/save up so I can get a couple to have on display. The Unleashed line is great, but these look pretty high quality. What is everyone's overall opinion of these things? Maybe I would be better off going with the somewhat cheaper mini-bust route, but there's something about having a full statue like these that seems kind of neat too.

My opinion is to find space and money for a couple of them that you really like.

I have the dewback, and have a tauntaun on order. I think they are magnificent, and the unleashed line is the line I dropped in order to have the money/space for these. I also trimmed my mini-nust collection. While the mini-busts are great, a case full of head-and-shoulders loses something compared to the full statues. It's just an opinion, but I have had no regrets having done what you are thinking about.[/

Managed to order the Darth Maul Statue (International version) on GG's website today. I think they were up for order for an hour or so. Did anyone else get an order in? I think I prefer the Int version to the US version. Thoughts?

Actually, I am very pleased with the US version. I have mine diplayed not far from the GG Vader statue, and the capes flowing on the two Sith Lords display well together. Had considered getting the international version, but am pleased with my cheaper choice.

I have too much SideShow product on the way to have both versions of the Maul statue.

I'm not as crazy about this statue in it's chrome form, but the light-up lightsaber is pretty cool.

...edit... After fighting with the translation a bit, it seems that there will be 1000 pieces available from Blister.jp, but a total of 2500 pieces available worldwide. So I imagine the other 1500 should be made available to North America at a later time.
